Dear NSX community, I am in need of help with a potential '91 NSX purchase.
My name is Eric Kerub and was an original member of the NSXCA from the day of it's inauguration. Attended the first NSXPO in '95 at Mid-Ohio and a few others here and there. I still have some NSX's including my retired race car (which I'm hoping to resurrect in the near future). I have unfortunately not been around these forums in ages but could not think of a better place to see if I can get the assistance needed.
In short, I'm considering buying that extremely low (no) mileage '91 NSX that was on the forums starting in 2011 with a final update in 2013 that it was sold to Dubai.

It's actually quite amusing going through the 4 pages of the thread during the economic recession and before the current NSX bubble to see how he was taking any offers in the $60K range and had no bites. It's even crazier to see members such as @tbromely and [MENTION=20332]MadtownNSX[/MENTION] saying his original $80K ask was basically a pipe dream (and rightfully so back then). So much has changed...
Anyhow, for my request, the seller sent me many high definition pictures of the car. For me, it's doesn't pass the smell test. There seems to be way too much wear and "issues" with a car that basically has delivery miles on it. I'll have my guys at my race shop look at them but also wanted to know if I could get an expert opinion from somebody in these forums.
Please let me know and I can arrange a wetransfer of all the pictures.
Much appreciated,
Eric
